Template:If mobile/doc

 Note that {{If mobile}} only works outside of the Template: namespace. This template detects whether it is being used on the mobile version of Wikipedia (commons.m.wikimedia.org), and displays different content accordingly.

Rationale

[edit]

Some features work differently on the mobile website, such as slideshow galleries appearing as ordinary galleries. This template allows better presentation of such content, by e.g. having a "Slideshow" heading when a slideshow is shown, and a "Gallery" heading when a regular gallery is shown.

Usage

[edit]

{{If mobile|content for mobile website|content for desktop website}}

By default, ‎<span>...‎</span> tags are used to wrap the specified content. A different tag may be specified using |tag=

E.g. |tag=div can be used if the content contains block-level elements.

Example

Normal usage
